ICON Vehicle Dynamics 2020-Up Jeep Gladiator JT 2.5-Inch Lift Stage 2 Suspension System

The ICON Vehicle Dynamics Stage 2 Suspension System delivers a 2.5-inch lift for 2020-and-newer Jeep Gladiator JT models (excluding Mojave trim), combining front dual-rate coil springs, rear triple-rate coil springs, 2.0 Aluminum Series shocks, front bump stops, and adjustable billet sway bar end links into a complete, 100% bolt-on package. Wheel travel increases 33% at the front and 23% at the rear over stock. This system does not fit the Gladiator Mojave trim.

Shipping: ICON parts ship direct from ICON Vehicle Dynamics, mostly by UPS Ground. Lead times vary by part and some items are built to order, so please allow extra time. We email tracking as soon as your order ships.

Engineered for Real Off-Road Gains

ICON developed this system through the ICON1K program (more than a thousand miles of accelerated dirt testing on the Gladiator JT specifically) to identify where factory components limit performance and replace them with parts tuned for the vehicle's actual geometry. The result is a suspension that improves both on-road ride quality and off-road capability rather than trading one for the other. Wheel travel gains of 33% front and 23% rear translate directly to better obstacle clearance, reduced chassis stress, and more confident footing on uneven terrain.

Triple-Rate Rear Springs and Vehicle-Specific Valving

The rear triple-rate coil spring design uses separate droop, ride, and overload rates engineered by ICON for the Gladiator's weight and geometry. Softer droop and ride rates keep the rear compliant on the street and on moderate trails, while the firmer overload rate resists bottoming under heavy loads or hard landings. The rear spring kit lifts the Gladiator 1.5 inches over stock. Front dual-rate coil springs carry a lifetime guarantee against sagging or breakage. All shocks use vehicle-specific valving developed during ICON1K testing and are fully serviceable.

OEM Wheel and Tire Compatibility, with Notes on Larger Setups

The Stage 2 system is confirmed compatible with OEM wheels and tires. It accommodates 35-inch tires in standard configuration. Running 37-inch tires requires the optional Extended Bump Stop Spacer Kit (PN 22071, sold separately). ICON recommends ICON Alloys 17x8.5-inch wheels with 4.5-inch backspace / -6mm offset, or 18x9-inch wheels with 4.5-inch backspace / -12mm offset, for aftermarket wheel fitment. Diesel-powered Gladiators will net approximately 1.75 inches of front lift over stock due to their greater front-end weight. On a stock-weight vehicle, lift may exceed the advertised 2.5 inches.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This system suits 2020-and-newer Jeep Gladiator JT owners who want a complete, bolt-on suspension upgrade that improves both daily-driven ride quality and off-road capability, covering everything from rock crawling to high-speed desert running.

This system does not fit the Gladiator Mojave trim. It does not include an adjustable track bar, which may be needed to realign the axle after installation. The 37-inch tire option requires the separately sold Extended Bump Stop Spacer Kit (PN 22071). Diesel Gladiator owners should expect approximately 1.75 inches of front lift rather than the full 2.5 inches due to added front-end weight.

Common Questions

Does this system fit the Jeep Gladiator Mojave?

No. The ICON Stage 2 Suspension System for the 2020-and-newer Jeep Gladiator JT does not fit the Mojave trim. Gladiator Mojave owners should contact TerrainVault to identify a compatible ICON system.

Will I need an adjustable track bar?

An adjustable track bar may be needed after installing this Stage 2 system to realign the axle from left to right or to add strength. A track bar is not included in the kit and must be sourced separately.

Can I run 37-inch tires with this kit?

The Stage 2 system accommodates 35-inch tires in its standard configuration. Fitting 37-inch tires requires the ICON Extended Bump Stop Spacer Kit (PN 22071), which is sold separately and not included in this system.

How much lift will a diesel Gladiator see?

Diesel-powered Gladiator JT models will net approximately 1.75 inches of front lift over stock rather than the full 2.5 inches, because the diesel engine's greater front-end weight compresses the springs more than a gas-powered build does.

Are the shocks rebuildable?

Yes. All 2.0 Aluminum Series shocks included in this Stage 2 system are fully serviceable, meaning they can be rebuilt or revalved rather than replaced outright when they eventually require service.
